Means not to fall into the cunning trap!
Then, Victor, I shall yet escape you, Victor!
Vic. [Suddenly placing the crown upon the head of Charles.] D'Ormea, your king!
[To Cha.] My son, obey me! Charles,
Your father, clearer-sighted than yourself,
Decides it must be so. 'Faith, this looks real!
My reasons after; reason upon reason
After: but now, obey me! Trust in me!
By this, you save Sardinia, you save me!
Why, the boy swoons! [To D'O.] Come this side!
